  • Figure 22 shows the electroluminescence spectrum of OLED21.
  • Figure 23 shows the electroluminescence spectrum of OLED22.
  • the P1-containing EML compositions of OLED21 and OELD22 show an improved solubility and an improved layer formation property. Furthermore, the performance data OLED21 and OLED22 are improved, in particular with regard to intensity, operating voltage and stability.
